Empower Community Through Shared Meals
Join Us in Combating Loneliness with Shabbat Table
Discover how your support can transform lives by fostering community connections and reducing isolation through shared Shabbat dinners.
Building Connections, One Meal at a Time
The Shabbat Table app is a charitable initiative designed to combat loneliness and enhance community wellbeing. By facilitating shared meals, we aim to create a sense of belonging and support for individuals who might otherwise feel isolated. Our mission is to bring people together, fostering connections that enrich lives and strengthen communities.
Funding Our Community Efforts
Our funding model is a collaborative effort between Tevity and generous public donations. Tevity covers over 91% of our development costs, ensuring that the majority of resources go directly towards our mission. Public donations are crucial in providing nourishment credits, which help hosts afford groceries for their Shabbat dinners. This transparent funding approach ensures that every contribution has a direct impact on supporting community hospitality and wellbeing.
